What we discovered from analyzing the feedback of dozens of users, is that most users were in one of two categories…
- They loved the watch and its performance.
- They experienced problems with the functioning of the watch and frequently were also unhappy with GolfBuddy customer support.
Normally, we would not even consider recommending a watch with ratings as low as those on the GolfBuddy LD2. However, since this is the only true ladies golf watch and the reviews indicate that it’s possible that you will receive a watch that works well, we have to consider that this may well be the right golf watch for some people. That said, we would only recommend this GolfBuddy ladies golf watch for the individual who doesn’t want a watch that looks like a sports watch and who also is prepared to take a chance on getting a watch that needs to be serviced or replaced.

Hi Pam. Sorry to say that the LD2 is no longer available. I’m not sure if the GolfBuddy Active2 is available in your area, but you might want to check.
How can I reboot my LD2
I don’t have this model here anymore, but maybe you can find it in the GolfBuddy LD2 User Manual.
